Rotation speed, Si/Al molar ratio and co‐solvent have important effects on the crystal size of ZSM‐22. The nanosized zeolite samples were characterized by X‐ray diffraction, X‐ray fluorescence, nitrogen adsorption, scanning electron microscopy, temperature‐programmed desorption of am‐monia and solid state nuclear magnetic resonance. The catalytic performance of nanosized ZSM‐22 was tested using the conversion of methanol. Compared to conventional ZSM‐22, the nanosized ZSM‐22 zeolite exhibited superior selectivity to ethylene and aromatics and lower selectivity to propylene. Stability against deactivation was clearly shown by the nanosized ZSM‐22 zeolite. A higher external surface area and smaller particle size make this nanosized ZSM‐22 zeolite attractive for catalytic applications.展开更多

This is the first demonstration of hierarchical MOR without preferential growth along the c-axis, which facilitates mass transfer in the 12-membered ring channels of MOR zeolite for the conversions involving bulky molecules. The facile method involves the combined use of tetraethylammonium hydroxide （TEAOH） and commercial surfactants, in which TEAOH is essential for the construction of nanocrystal assemblies. The surfactant serves as a crystal growth-inhibiting agent to further inhibit nanocrystalline particle growth, resulting in enhanced mesoporosity. The hierarchical MOR assembled particles, constructed of 20-50-nm crystallites, exhibit superior catalytic properties in the alkylation of benzene with benzyl alcohol compared with the control sample, as the hierarchical MOR possesses a larger external surface area and longer c-axis dimension. More importantly, the material shows improved activity and stability in the dimethyl ether carbonylation to methyl acetate reaction, which is a novel route to produce ethanol from syngas.展开更多
